Gameplay
Gameplay
The game is a point-and-click adventure game in which players study clues and symbols to solve puzzles and progress through the game. The gameplay is centered on peaceful exploration and discovery rather than challenge or conflict. Players wander through landscapes, collecting objects that function like keys to operate machines and to open doors. Progress comes from using these items in the correct places, gradually unlocking new areas and experiences.
